This is the second time that the student who graduated from the ULS Music Department performs a concert at the Extension Center. The musician acknowledges that the experience last January "was very pleasant and I liked the reception from the public, that is why I have chosen to play again at the Extension Center, especially for its intimate and close acoustics." He also revealed that his source of inspiration for composing his musical pieces comes mainly from ''the sensations that are evoked by colors and different degrees of light'', from which several titles have been born, among which 'Fluentem' stands out. Colores'' (for strings) and ''Precious Stones'' (cycle of pieces for solo piano). From the latter, Véliz will play two pieces in the next concert.

The young artist, who began composing at the age of 9 with a children's keyboard, has high expectations for the next version of this concert, with which he seeks to consolidate himself through several public presentations. Likewise, he wants to contribute with social work and a great contribution to local culture, since his objective is "to bring piano music closer to all people."

''Many times this type of music seems to be within a few circles, but that is something that can be changed,'' added Nicolás, who is currently dedicated to teaching piano at the Casa Chopin academy in La Serena. The artist extended the invitation to all people who want to attend the event, to take advantage of this opportunity, especially because the repertoire for that night will include the premiere of a recent unpublished composition under the title ''Fantasía Nival''.
